( Voice of the People I cannot leave Walkerton High School without ex pre.sing my sincere gratitude to the many student*, fallow teaches, parents, administrators and school boards that have made my position as fnath teacher most enjoyable. Letters and visits from so mer students who have continued on in math have more than made my experience as a teacher worthwhile. The success of teaching staff and the administration.

however, respected him as he in turn put confidence in his teachers. Our problems were his problems. Expe.lenced teachers were assigned projects. The Snethen Contest was really a contest. The contestants didn't outnumber the spectators. May my present math classes have a very successful New Year. Mrs. Bewley The December 10. 1964, editorial, “The T.ue Christmas Gift", conta ns a reference to Socialism as follows: "Relentlessly the march toward socialism has continued as Congress added to gove. nment intervention and control over individuals and their freedom." Why is it that those who preach against socialism never define it and only see fede al Washington Socialism ? Socialism is that which is public and government owned and controlled -and government is government w hether local, state, or federal level. For instance, the Golden Book Eixyclop«l;a book 11. page 1271. defines and makes socialism easy to unde stand, "most people accept socialism to some • xtent In most cities, the city owns its schools, water supply, sewage disposal, etc." A more .scholarly approach is ‘ Economics”, Prof. John Ise, Unive sity of Kansas Page 620 Chapter 11 "So ialism”. The trend is strongly towards socialism ar. I there- is little b.l.s We are now in a posit i >n somewhere between capitalism and socialism. We are ro lahzcd to a greatc extent than is commonly realized Prof. Ise. then shows all the local, state and federal g »v---emment socialism we have to lay such as public schools, libra ie . roads, streets highways, post office, police, fire, armed services, state colleges, TV A, FDIC, FHA, REMC, public housing, etc. It’s high time all Arne-leans especially conservat Ives, realize we have government owned and

i operated socialistic public schools and colleges that monopolize all educational tax dollars just like Nazi (National Socialist) Germany and all communist nations. Ou public schools were founded by Horace Mann in 1644, patterned after the Prussian socialistic public school system. Karl Marx in his “Communist Manifesto", the Bible of Socialism, sets forth ten points toward world socialism and point nine calls for government public schools only - none other. Actually, all schools are public since they are comprised of the public and sen ea common public purpose. the education of the citizenry. Non-govemment public schools such as church related pa’orhial schools are socialistic, subsidized by r.on-taxation and sharing in government socialistic welfare services such as fire, police, armed so ces, health welfare, school lunches, roads, libraries, parks, airpo ts, etc.. and bus 1 ramport ition Our fathers we e all products <>f the original schools of America. the church related parochial s bools These school. won- sup-
